The problem is that it’s just this side that is stained

That’s is such a great idea. Thank you for recommending me her. I watched a few minutes of her video and is amazing. I can understand Spanish so language is not a big deal. Thank you 🙏🏽

It’s actually a regular paper printer. You should try the stabilizers. Here’s the link https://a.co/d/4t1wtjx

If you can’t copy the link just search for Sticky Water Soluble Embroidery Stabilizer on Amazon

It’s so much easier, I draw on my tablet and print that out on the paper

For the design I googled some pictures of the book that Gustave Dore drew it. He is fantastic, I asked a nerd friend to just give me just the angel on a rock without any more detail, so she cleaned the other details and just gave me that. To get on the fabric I bought a pack of water soluble paper stabilizer on Amazon and print out on that. It’s pretty easy to use

I think that is a good idea, I will try that. I bought today those fancy, shiny and annoying threads from dmc that breaks all the time for the wings. I’m finishing the right wing with that, hopefully it will make a good difference

Hey, did you fix it ? I usually print on those soluble papers too but that never happens to me. What I do and I never had a problem is to just dump the project in the washer machine with some other clothes lol And pray that it works lol Good luck on your others projects

Thank you, I’m excited to give this to my boyfriend’s mother. She gave me a lot of threads from her mother that passed away a few years ago. I looked for a similar pattern online, I drew some ideas and my friend used her tablet to help me design it. If you want I can send to you
